Ahmadreza Yalameha

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Biography of a "top researcher" written by a WP:SPA. Claim to notability rests on editorship of journals, but they journals are listed as predatory open access. Fails WP:PROF, also fails WP:GNG due to lack of independent sourcing. Guy (Help!) 10:08, 17 November 2017 (UTC)

he is the Top researcher of humanities in Iran, President of a university in Iran and in some authentic literature journals editorial board.A.R.Rostamzade (talk) 11:47, 17 November 2017 (UTC)


 * And I am not WP:SPA, every one can see my activity in Farsi Wikipedia 1 so I am not fake.
 * As I said before Ahmadreza Yalameha is a President of a university in Iran and according to WP:GNG,Specific criteria notes, Paragraph six The person has held a highest-level elected or appointed administrative post at a major academic institution or major academic society is notable person.A.R.Rostamzade (talk) 12:00, 17 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment none of the references states that he holds the post of university president: neither does the CV linked from the fifth reference. Unless he is verifiably notable, this is an invalid argument in this context ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 12:40, 17 November 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. Notability appears to rest on membership on editorial board (not editor in chief) of journals from a group appearing to be impersonating the publishers of Science and described by some as predatory  . That's a fail of the "major, well-established" components of WP:PROF, and no other notability is evident. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:15, 17 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete not an editor in chief, so does not pass on those grounds. No other grounds to show he is a notable academic either.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:51, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
